Forget it’s winter in Calgary as you join us to experience Latin heat. Who needs to head south when you can drop in to Jack Singer Concert Hall for an afternoon of steaming Latin music? Immerse yourselves in the vibrant colours of Mexico and South America as presented by the University of Calgary String Quartet, soprano Michelle Minke and accordionist Penny Sanborn. To spice things up a little more, we’re also welcoming tango dancers, Leo Sato and Marina Gonzalez.
